Multi Robot – Multi-Pallet Fully Automatic

MR MP HS FA

The Multi Robot Multi Pallet Fully Automatic Palletizing Cell is designed for larger companies with multiple packaging lines and a need for palletizing multiple stations that can handle multiple production lines simultaneously. These systems employ many standard stations which are coordinated via Master Control Panels, to insure high speed performance. The number of robots is determined by the specific operational requirements. Each robot can run up to 14 cycles or picks per minute while the number of pieces to be picked per cycle is project dependent. Two lines per robot feed packages via independent conveyors which deliver packages to each robot. The Fanuc Multi Axis Robot Arm has capacity of 140 kg (308#) is the capacity of a maximum weight per pick including the End Of Arm Tool (EOAT). Higher capacity robots are available for heavier items, but the 140 KG capacity handles most applications. The system can run various packages such as cases, large bags, pails and others which will be placed on the shipping pallet via stored recipes. Each robot may operate with it’s own type of EOAT. Pallet stacks are forklift loaded into a pallet dispenser which will meter the pallets onto the main pallet conveyor as they are needed. Auto slip sheet at the robot cell will ensure sheets are placed on each pallet as needed and top sheets can be applied at the palletizer. Safety circuits will be installed as needed to prevent operators from entering the cell. An automatic stretch wrapper will finish each pallet before it is prepared to be picked by the warehousing forklift.

The HMI has a color 10” screen which is intuitive and easy to follow, with three levels of access for the operator, maintenance, and engineer levels. The HMI will provide details on each fault and steps to clear them. The HMI also contains a manual and schematics to facilitate maintenance and engineering when needed. The Allen-Bradley PLC controls the entire system while the HMI provides an intuitive set of screens to run the palletizing cell. The EOAT is specific to the type of package to be loaded.

These systems are all customized and need detailed due diligence to offer a budgetary proposal.

Option Packages include:

• Specific EOAT Required
• Case Labeling
• Case Direct Printing
• Automatic Slip Sheet Placement
• Heavy Duty Robot with 180kg Capacity
